Vacation

Part of Jeff's contract when moving up here to Calgary is that his company would pay for us to fly home once. Well we have someone living in our home and so we decided it would be better to just go and visit family. We went over the 4th. Jeff stayed for 5 days and I stayed for 2 weeks. We were able to see some family and friends. Overall it was a really good trip. Here are some pics of the 4th.

Well actually the one in the left top corner is of the 2nd when we watched the stadium of fire fireworks with Shanna and Ron. Then we went up the canyon on the 4th with the Flints and Walkers. We also shot off fireworks with Rachel and her family. The fireworks were very exciting this year as ones that were illegal before were now legal. It made for good times with the kids. Here are some of the other people we saw while we were there.

We were able to see Camille and James our friends from Denver as they were in Utah too. I am so glad we got to see them. Well I guess that only I got to see them. I can't believe how big Jacob has gotten. I love that he was holding this string thing in his mouth for such a long time.
One of the main reasons that I went to Utah was for this little one.

My good friend Misty had a baby and I went to help her out for a while. Although I didn't feel like much help I got to hold the baby a lot and that was really fun. Jane was mostly kind of patting her hard but she had her moments with the baby. Like in these pics she was being so cute. It is hard to believe that Jane used to be that little too. Oh those were the days.
Although we had lots of fun we are glad to be back in our familiar surroundings. Thanks to everyone who put us up and put up with us.
